Long time user/first time poster
Yesterday I installed nfsen 1.3.6p1 on a Fedora 24 Workstation. I had to
modify the installer to permit installation with the rrd-1.5.x that comes
with Fedora 24. Flows are generated with a locally-built and run instance
of fprobe 1.1. This is basically the same thing that I've been doing since
2009 on Centos5/6. Everything more or less works on the Fedora system.
The problem I have is that the date/time in the web picker isn't
translating correctly to the actual flow files. The graphs and the picker
seem to be running in local (EDT) time, but it seems to be looking for
summary and detail values out of UTC-named files.
For example, in the Live Profile, I select a single timeslot which the
ProfileInfo identifies as:
start: 2016-07-07-03-40
end: 2016-07-07-03-45
...but the same window shows "Statistics timeslot Jul 07 2016 - 07:40" --
which is the UTC time of 03:40 EDT.
Similarly, using the Netflow Processing on this time slot, it wants to
operate on the netflow file 2016/07/07/nfcapd.201607070740.
I've looked, and nfcapd is creating files with the local (EDT) time-name,
not UTC. So when you try to look at something from the last four hours, the
processor can't find the nfcapd file (because it doesn't exist yet).
I've googled around and seen hints that this means my timezone thing is
messed up somewhere. I've confirmed that the Fedora system is set to
America/Toronto, and that my /etc/php.ini has the same thing set. So I'm
clearly missing something simple, and I was hoping someone could point me
in the right direction.
Thanks all
